Yellow Sands Caravan Park

Yellow Sands Caravan Park sits at the mouth of the Kwelera River, roughly 25 km east of East London in the Eastern Cape.

Perched between the Indian Ocean and the river, the park is surrounded by indigenous bush and offers views of both the sea and the gentle Kwelera River.

The property has roots as a dairy farm dating to the 1950s, when the Leppan family began welcoming guests, and it has since grown into one of South Africa's most popular camping destinations.

The park offers around 200 grassy campsites on a private beach and riverfront setting. Its combination of ocean access, river frontage, and bush surroundings makes it a well-regarded coastal getaway in the Eastern Cape.
